Gaseous compound Q contains only xenon and oxygen. When 0.100 gg of Q is placed in a 50.0 mLmL steel vessel at 0 ∘C∘C, the press

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Gaseous compound Q contains only xenon and oxygen. When a 0.100 g sample of Q is placed in a 50.0-mL steel vessel at 0°C, the pressure is 0.229 atm. What is the likely formula of the compound?

A. XeO

B. $XeO_4$

C. $Xe_2O_2$

D. $Xe_2O_3$

E. $Xe_3O_2$

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula of the compound is $XeO_4$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molecular mass of the compound, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

Or,

$PV=\frac{w}{M}RT$

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 0.229 atm

V = Volume of the gas = 50.0 mL = 0.050 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

w = Weight of the gas = 0.100 g

M = Molar mass of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = Temperature of the gas = $0^oC=273K$

Putting value in above equation, we get:

$0.229\times 0.050=\frac{0.100}{M}\times 0.0821\times 273\\\\M=\frac{0.100\times 0.0821\times 273}{0.229\times 0.050}=195.4g/mol\approx 195g/mol$

The compound having mass as 195 g/mol is $XeO_4$

Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is $XeO_4$

Answer:

4.4 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

Cu + 4 HNO₃ ⇒ Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 NO₂ + 2 H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 3.2 L of NO₂ at STP

At standard temperature and pressure, 1 mole of NO₂ occupies 22.4 L.

3.2 L × 1 mol/22.4 L = 0.14 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of Cu needed to produce 0.14 moles of NO₂

The molar ratio of Cu to NO₂ is 1:2. The moles of Cu needed are 1/2 × 0.14 mol = 0.070 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.070 moles of Cu

The molar mass of Cu is 63.55 g/mol.

0.070 mol × 63.55 g/mol = 4.4 g

What determines how hard an atom attracts electrons in a covalent bond?

Evgen [1.6K]

The electronegativity of an atom describes how much an atom attracts an electron, whether it be in a covalent bond or just on its own.
